What Is Love? Poem by Wangui Mukiri

Love is when Im listening,
Till the listening becomes me,
And I become the words that are coming out of your mouth,
And your whispers,
That if m not listening carefully,
Can be taken away by the wind.

Love is telling you thigs about me,
That I do not even know of,
Hoping that you will understand,
And in turn make me aware of.

Love is draining my brain,
In finding joy in the things that you do,
Or do not,
Because I love you,
And it is simply true.


Love is trying to find a defination of you,
And finding out all there is to you.

Love is me dutifully,
Hopelessly,
Being in touch with you.
